Chapter 505

"Things are not what you think!"

Henry looked directly into Jiang Yuan's eyes, "I never agreed to that marriage!"

Jiang Yuan sneered, "Whether you agree or not, you cannot deny this fact."

"If you want to be with Chu Hong, you can resolve your messy relationship first!"

"It's your responsibility!"

"Let me tell you, no matter how great a person you are in country F, in my place, as long as you dare to be sorry to Chu Hong, I will definitely make you regret coming to this world!"

Henry was silent, his eyes full of hesitation.

He did not lie. He did not agree with the marriage decided by his father, so he kept traveling around the world on the pretext of discussing business.

In fact, it is also escaping.

He knew how powerful his father was, especially since this marriage was related to the family's interests.

Moreover, my father has never been very fond of Easterners.

Henry just thought that he and Zhang Chuhong would settle down and get married as soon as possible. If they even had children, his father would have nothing to say.

In addition, Zhang Chuhong’s conditions are also very good.

Unfortunately, he took everything for granted.

Facing Jiang Yuan's question, Henry didn't know how to answer.

Jiang Yuan said coldly:

"I will tell Chu Hong truthfully about this matter!"

Seeing that Jiang Yuan was about to turn around, Henry quickly chased after him.

"Jiang Yuan, you can't be so cruel!"

"Chu Hong and I truly love each other!"

"Wrong!" Jiang Yuan turned around and glared at Henry, "You just think you love her, with a few sweet words and a little romance, but you can't hide the fact that you can't give her a future!"

Henry's face turned pale, "No, I can give her a future!"

"Then solve your own troubles first, and then talk about the engagement!"

After saying that, Jiang Yuan left angrily.

Henry grabbed Jiang Yuan, but Jiang Yuan staggered him and hit the wall with a thud.

Watching Jiang Yuan leave, Henry sat in the corridor in despair. After a long time, he walked back to the room and dialed a phone number in country F.

"Henry, what's the rush for you to call me right now? How's the cooperation going? I've already read the information you gave me about Gadao Electric. You need to finalize the cooperation as soon as possible."

Hearing his father's voice, Henry was silent for a moment, "Father, the business is going very well."

"That's good. By the way, you should return to China as soon as possible. Your fiancée's birthday will be in a few days and you must be there."

Henry's face turned pale, "Father, I...I can't get away from here. I estimate that I will be here for the past six months."

"No!" Henry's father growled, "Even if you give up cooperation with Gadao Electric, you must come back."

"There is no room for negotiation on this matter!"

"But I don't love her at all!" Henry roared hysterically, "I already have someone I love."

Henry's father on the other side was silent for a few seconds and snorted coldly:

"Henry, don't forget your identity!"

"HL Group wants you to inherit it in the future!"

"I think you have been charmed by an oriental woman!"

"Immediately return to country F tomorrow, and you are not allowed to go to China again in the future!"

After saying that, the phone was hung up abruptly.

Henry lay on his back dejectedly on the bed, his expression in pain.

Zhang Guhua's home.

Jiang Yuan thought for a moment, then knocked on the door and called Zhang Chuhong out.

It's late at night and it feels chilly.

Zhang Chuhong looked at Jiang Yuan with confusion on her face, "Why are you coming to see me so late?"

"Is there anything we can't say during the day? I'm getting engaged tomorrow."

Jiang Yuan nodded, "Chu Hong, there is something I need to tell you, but I hope you won't be too sad after hearing it."

Zhang Chuhong frowned and said, "Just tell me."

"Actually, Henry also has a fiancée in country F," Jiang Yuan said solemnly: "She is a woman from a big family."

"Henry does love you, but he doesn't have the courage to resist his father's decision and fight for his own destiny. Naturally, he can't fight for your happiness."

Zhang Chuhong froze on the spot and remained silent for a long time.

Jiang Yuan clearly saw that her lips had been bitten with blood stains.

"I believe that if Henry loves me, he will definitely handle the affairs in country F."

Jiang Yuan frowned, "You still want to give him a chance?"

Zhang Chuhong nodded, "He deserves the chance I give him."

Jiang Yuan nodded and said nothing more.

the next day.

The engagement ceremony did not take place.

Zhang Chuhong didn't even show up.

Jiang Yuan had no choice but to take everyone around for fun, and finally got through the day.

Henry went through countless ideological struggles and locked himself in the hotel for three days. On the fourth day, he got on a plane back to country F.

In the past four days, he had called his father dozens of times and sought dozens of opportunities, but still had not received consent.

Then Henry chose to compromise.

The night before he left, he went to see Zhang Chuhong, but no one knew what they said.

Zhang Chuhong returned to the capital the next day, and no one knew what kind of existence Henry was in her heart now.

In the next few days, Ye Zhiqiu and others also returned to the capital one after another. Only Tan Song remained in Binhai.

Jiang Yuan has been studying how to make Qin Wen and Qin Wu become extraordinary people, but there has been no progress.

Even Jiang Yuan felt inexplicably irritable.

There was a heavy rain last night, which washed away the stale air.

When Jiang Yuan got up early in the morning, he felt relaxed.

Just as he stretched out, he saw Tan Song rushing into the yard on a domineering motorcycle.

Jiang Yuan took a closer look and saw that it was actually a Harley motorcycle.

Where did this guy Tan Song come from?

Seeing Jiang Yuan's interested look, Tan Song patted the back seat proudly, "Come on, brother, I'll take you for a ride."

Jiang Yuan came over, slipped Tan Songti into the back seat, sat in front, turned the accelerator, and the motorcycle rushed out.

"Where did you get it?"

Tan Song smiled and said, "The foreigners brought them and put them in the Jiangdu Sports Association. I bought one at a high price. If you are interested, I will buy one for you later."

Jiang Yuan nodded, rode his motorcycle around the river, and planned to go back.

But Tan Song said:

"You don't think I came to you just to show off this car, do you?"

Jiang Yuan suddenly became interested, "Is there anything else?"

"I found a good place, let's go out and play for a while," Tan Song said with a smile:

"The place is not far away. If you ride a motorcycle, you can get there in four or five hours."

"Isn't this far?"

Jiang Yuan said angrily: "Why are you running so far?"

"You'll know when you go."

After saying that, Tan Song asked Jiang Yuan to stop, changed places with Jiang Yuan, started the car and left the villa area.

Jiang Yuan originally wanted to refuse, but when he saw the blue sky and white clouds, he thought it was a good day to go out and play.

Facts have proved that Tan Song is unreliable.

He said it was four or five hours away

, the two of them alternated riding motorcycles, but it took them almost seven hours, and they only got close to their destination in the afternoon.

Jiang Yuan is currently riding a motorcycle on a mountain road.

This was a dirt road halfway up the mountain, so Jiang Yuan had to slow down.

"Stop and have a cigarette."

Jiang Yuan nodded, stopped the motorcycle, took out a cigarette and lit one with Tan Song.

The two of them stood on the roadside and looked towards the foot of the mountain.

There is a long and narrow area between several large mountains.

Small western-style buildings are scattered all over the place, looking like villas.

But Tan Song said, this is just a village.

Jiang Yuan was suddenly surprised. Is there such a wealthy village in China now?

Every small western-style building looks like a single-family villa depending on its style.

Tan Song nodded firmly, then pointed to a large shed at the end of the village.

"Wet market?"

Tan Song rolled his eyes at Jiang Yuan, "What kind of vegetable market? You'll know when you go there soon."

In fact, along the way, Jiang Yuan discovered a lot of ruts and a lot of vehicles coming and going.

Jiang Yuan didn't pay attention at first, but now that he thought about it, this village must be extraordinary.

Tan Song said excitedly at this time:

“I heard about this place when I bought a motorcycle.”

"Jiang Yuan, do you know why the people in this village are so rich?"

Without waiting for Jiang Yuan to answer, Tan Song answered himself:

"Look at the big mountains at the end of the village."

Jiang Yuan raised his eyes and frowned immediately.

Aren't mountains supposed to be lush and green? Why are those mountains bare?

Tan Song deliberately played it off, "It's getting late, let's find a place to stay first, and then have a meal. I'll talk to you about other things after we've eaten and drank enough."

Jiang Yuan nodded. Since he is here, there is no reason to leave now.

Although Tan Song doesn't seem to be doing anything right, he doesn't come here looking like he has nothing to do.

Jiang Yuan rode his motorcycle down the winding mountain road. Ten minutes later, he finally passed by the shed in Cuntou and entered the village.

This is more like a market than a village.

There is a street in the village with some shops on both sides.

As for those small western-style buildings, they are scattered in different locations.

In other words, this street is specially designed to serve outsiders.

This made Jiang Yuan even more interested.

Riding a motorcycle and parked in front of a hotel, Jiang Yuan and Tan Song walked in side by side.

The boss is a middle-aged man, wearing yellow rubber shoes and a gray hand-knitted sweater.

It can be seen that middle-aged people are very simple.

But...he is the owner of this hotel.

This contrast immediately made Jiang Yuan even more confused.

Tan Song looked at the boss and asked:

"Boss, are there any rooms left?"

The middle-aged boss smiled and nodded, "You came just in time, there are only the last two rooms left."

Upon hearing this, Tan Song quickly handed the money to the boss, as if he was afraid that the two rooms would be robbed.

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Why are you so anxious? There are many hotels on this street."

Yes, Jiang Yuan noticed just now that almost all of this street is filled with hotels and restaurants.

"Little brother, you are wrong," the middle-aged boss said with a smile:

"There have been so many people here in the past two days, and there really aren't many rooms left."

"Many people have already lived in our villagers' homes."

"As for the two rooms you have now, they were vacated by two guests who had to leave due to urgent matters."

When Tan Song heard this, he became even more anxious, "Okay, we'll stay."

After saying that, Tan Song couldn't wait to run upstairs.

After a while, the two went downstairs.

The boss found a hoe out of nowhere and looked like he was about to go out.

Tan Song smiled, "Boss, the people in your village are so rich, why are they still farming?"

The boss shook his head and said, "A table of guests came to the farmhouse I run and they want to eat wild vegetables. I will dig some in the mountains."

“Farmhouse?”

Tan Song's eyes lit up, "Where is it? We are about to have dinner."

The boss said enthusiastically, "Then I will take you there first."

"I'll dig some more wild vegetables later, and I'll give you two side dishes as well."

Tan Song nodded, and Jiang Yuan followed the boss towards the other end of the street.

After a while, the three of them walked out of the street, walked dozens of meters along a two- to three-meter-wide cement road, and arrived at a small western-style building halfway up the mountain.

There is a large open space in front and behind the small western-style building, with many trees and flowers planted, and it looks like the atmosphere is very good.

The boss smiled and said:

"I had nothing to do in my yard, so I opened a farmhouse. My wife's cooking skills are very good, and the customers who have eaten there are also very satisfied."

Jiang Yuan nodded and found a place under a big tree.

After Tan Song and Jiang Yuan sat down, a fifteen or sixteen year old girl came over with a menu.

This is the boss's daughter.

Jiang Yuan looked at the menu and saw that it was all home-cooked dishes.

Jiang Yuan directly ordered a large pot of chicken and several side dishes.

This table is also very special. Take off the table top and there will be an earthen stove underneath.

A young man in his twenties brought a large iron pot over, lit the fire, poured oil into the pot in front of Jiang Yuan and Tan Song, chopped two chickens and threw them into the pot.

The fragrance immediately hits your nostrils.

When the frying was almost done, I poured some potatoes, beans and other side dishes into it, and also made a few pancakes and stuck them on the edge of the pot.

When the pot of chicken was almost eaten by Jiang Yuan and the two of them, the boss's youngest daughter came over with two plates of vegetarian dishes.

"Boy, these are wild vegetables that my dad dug in the mountains. They are very fresh and relieve greasiness."

Jiang Yuan thanked him and took some chopsticks. It was indeed refreshing and delicious.

After eating, the two went back to the hotel.

Tan Song never told Jiang Yuan why he came here.

But as soon as the two of them entered the hotel, they saw the boss talking to a group of people with a sad face.

Jiang Yuan and the two were stopped just as they were about to go upstairs.

A young man wearing sunglasses, a thin figure, and a suit, who looked very disharmonious, stopped Jiang Yuan and the two of them, and said expressionlessly:

"You're not allowed to go up there."

Only then did Jiang Yuan notice that several guests were blocked on the first floor.

Tan Song frowned and snorted coldly:

"Who are you? You are so arrogant."

The young man glanced at Tan Song and sneered:

"I'm someone you can never mess with."

Jiang Yuan looked at the boss at this time, frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

The boss looked helpless and said, "Brother, those two rooms of yours were originally occupied by him."

"But he said he had something to do and left, so I gave the room to you."

"But now, he is back again, but now there is no place to live in the village, so he insists that I give him two rooms back."

"Are you just being unreasonable?"

Tan Song sneered and looked at the man in sunglasses, "You said you look like a human, but why are you so annoying?"

"You all vacated the room, so it's only natural that you give it to us now."

"Yi, if you still want to go back, I think you're just thinking shit."

The man in sunglasses looked coldly, "Do you know whose son I am?"

"It's not my son anyway," Tan Song chuckled, "If I had a son like you, I would be furious to death."

The man in sunglasses turned red, "I think you're looking for a beating!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and several big men standing behind him walked towards Tan Song.

Tan Song showed no fear on his face and walked slowly to Jiang Yuan's side, folding his arms and getting ready to watch the show.

Jiang Yuan took a step to the side and shook his head to indicate that he didn't know Tan Song.

This kid is looking for trouble!

"Get further away!" The man in sunglasses pulled off his sunglasses and glared at Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan suddenly became unhappy, "You should be lucky that I didn't take action."

The man in sunglasses ignored Jiang Yuan and shouted to the people behind him:

"Take care of them for me! Break their arms and legs. I'll be responsible for anything that happens. Beat them until their parents don't even recognize them!"

Tan Song was afraid that Jiang Yuan would not take action, so he took a stool and hit one of the big men with a bang.

A group of big men didn't hesitate anymore and charged forward with fists waving.

A moment later, Jiang Yuan was smoking a cigarette, looking at the several big men lying on the ground, and looked at Tan Song with a speechless face, "You always cause trouble for me."

The boss looked sad at this time and sighed repeatedly.

The man in sunglasses looked gloomy, snorted coldly, turned around and left.

After he left, the boss looked at Jiang Yuan and Tan Song, "Two little brothers, you are in trouble now!"

"The man just now is called Sun Mo, and he is the only son of Sun Shoufu, the richest man in our city."

"Sun Shoufu started his business through hard work, and later became a jewelry agent. I heard that he recently got involved with Ye's Jewelry in Beijing."

"Two little brothers, I think you are foreigners, so you should leave as soon as possible."

Jiang Yuan became interested, "Boss, do you still know the Ye family?"

Tan Song took the initiative to explain at this time:

"Aren't you curious about how people in the village make their fortunes?"

"The answer is bloodstone."

Tan Song laughed and said:

"There are a lot of chicken blood stones in the mountains around this village, and everyone in the village relies on them to make a fortune."

"Tomorrow is the Soapstone Exchange Meeting, so I specially asked you to come with me."

Jiang Yuan frowned. The famous domestic production areas of chicken blood stone should be Changhua and Guba Linyou Banner in Mongolia.

I have never heard of such an area rich in bloodstone.

As if seeing Jiang Yuan's doubts, Tan Song explained:

"This is what has happened in recent years."

"The boss should know this better than us."

The boss nodded, "About five years ago, our village had to dig canals to divert water from the reservoir to irrigate the farmland, and then we dug some strange stones."

"At that time, we thought they looked good and we used them as toys for children."

"Later, businessmen came to buy it. Later we found out that it was chicken blood stone and could be sold for a lot of money."

"Then the news spread, and a large number of people came over and searched the surrounding mountains over and over again. Now there are very few soapstones."

"Only people in our village have some stocks in their homes, and some soapstones that we occasionally find when we go up the mountain."

Jiang Yuan's interest suddenly rose.

Soapstone is also a popular collection. Whether it is used for making ornaments or carving seals, it is an excellent material.

Jiang Yuan gave Tan Song an approving look.

Judging from what the boss said, in a few years, the bloodstones in this village will probably be sold out.

Since I am here this time, I will definitely go back shopping for some.

Tan Song smiled at this time and said:

"Boss, you should have a lot of soapstone at home, right? Instead of waiting to move it to the market tomorrow to sell it, you might as well take us to have a look first."

The boss sighed, "You have offended Sun Mo. I'm afraid he will find someone to do harm to you. Please listen to my advice and you should leave as soon as possible."

Tan Song waved his hand, "Boss, do you think we two will be bullied?"

"That Sun Mo looks domineering in your eyes, but in our eyes, he is a low-class person."

Tan Song pointed at Jiang Yuan, "To be precise, in this guy's eyes, not to mention Sun Mo, even his father Sun Shoufu is a low-class person."

The boss shook his head, thinking that Tan Song was just talking nonsense.

But he couldn't refuse, so he nodded and said, "Then follow me upstairs."

In a utility room at the end of the second floor, there is a pile of messy things, and dozens of stones are piled on the ground next to them. They are so messy that it is basically impossible to tell that they are soapstone.

Tan Song frowned, "Are these bloodstones? Where is the blood? I don't see any red at all."

Jiang Yuan glanced at Tan Song with disdain, "Thankfully you are still Tan Gulou's young boss."

"Some bloodstones can be seen with a lot of red color on the outside, but they are actually substances like cinnabar."

"Soapstone is just like jade, it also comes from raw stone."

"Only when you peel off the shell of these stones can you see whether there is soapstone inside."

Tan Song nodded, feeling a little disappointed.

He thought that soapstone only depends on appearance. When you encounter something good, you can just throw it at it with money and grab it.

Unexpectedly, chicken blood stone, like raw jadeite, has gambling properties.

Tan Song's eyes suddenly lit up when he thought of Jiang Yuan's ability in gambling on stones.

"Jiang Yuan, what do you think of these stones?"

Jiang Yuan nodded, "I think it's pretty good."

With that said, Jiang Yuan walked over and picked up a stone the size of a fist.

From the outside of this stone, you can only see a trace of red like a thin line, and you can't see what's inside at all.

But Jiang Yuan could see that this was a pretty good bloodstone.

It is most suitable for making seals.

You must know that there are three treasures of seal stones, the first one is Tianhuang, and the second one is this chicken blood stone.

Bloodstone is brightly colored and really beautiful. In addition, chickenblood stone comes in black, white, yellow, green, blue, grey-brown, purple and cyan. When paired with blood-like red, it has a connotation similar to traditional ink painting.

A dream come true for those who love seals.

Jiang Yuan shook his head. The quality of the dozens of stones the boss has here varies from good to bad.

But there was no piece of it that Jiang Yuan had the idea of ​​collecting.

After all, Jiang Yuan already has a top-quality chicken blood stone in his treasure room.

Tan Song suddenly lost interest.

Just when Jiang Yuan was about to turn around and go downstairs, his eyes caught a glimpse of a small stone thrown in the corner.

This small stone is only about the size of a finger, elongated, and gray-brown in color, just like an ordinary mountain stone.

But Jiang Yuan saw that the inside of this small stone was blood red, and it was actually a top-quality chicken blood stone that was 'full of blood'.

If this were used as a seal, it would be perfect.

Don't look at a piece of full-colored bloodstone as big as your finger, made into a seal. If it is made with exquisite workmanship, it will be worth millions in the future.

The price will definitely not drop if you collect it.

Jiang Yuan looked at the boss with a smile, "How can I sell this small stone?"

The boss took a look, shook his head and said:

"The probability of this small stone being red is almost zero."

"I remember I brought it back when I went up to the mountains to dig wild vegetables a few days ago."

"If you want it, you can take it for fifty yuan."

Jiang Yuan quickly counted fifty yuan and then put the stone into his pocket.
